Vip Cigars

Came on a Friday afternoon for a quick smoke before work. I picked out a cigar and they gave me a v-​cut, which is not what I like, so I asked for a full cut and got it but the damn thing started falling apart. By the end of my smoke the whole cigar fell apart. Staff not the friendliest. But still a legit store with a really vintage feel.

this lounge is not your typical lounge coming from the parkchester area of the Bronx. First and for most, if there is more than 5 people in here, the place is packed. and everytime I’ve walked in here, the establishment seemed to be under construction. the air filtration system is horrible. I can compare it to smoking a cigar in my car.
I live less than quarter mile from here, and I’d rather drive 5 miles away to get a cigar then from here. this spot is my emergency stash. the owner does not believe in buybacks or throwing you an extra bone for being a patron.
I have to go through a few cigars too find a good cigar. the issues can range from the cigar not being wrapped to tight or too many vains. I can never get an evening burn when I pull on the cigar. Nothing here is premium, all are straight Dominican. I laugh every time I go to get a cigar from here bcz some of the cigars are cases in glass jars with a fasting lid for air quality within the humidor room.
Deepening on where you or your ability to travel, just look a my profile and compare some of the other stops I’ve reviewed. Let this place be you last resort.
